The Results Are In: Your Pick For Funniest News Anchor Blooper of 2008

This year was an especially fine one (or painful, depending on your perspective) for news anchor bloopers. We had a strange justification for why Obama's victory was historic, a reporter who apparently hates children's artwork, and one very oddly placed giant dildo.

But the best news blooper according to GiggleSugar readers, is when Ken Bastida learns the value of punctuation and accidentally declares his co-worker dead. So congratulations (er . . . or something?) Ken!

I guess teleprompters don't always include commas and periods when they should, so news anchors just read what they see. I bet Dana, who had the night off, was none too pleased to hear the fate that befell him thanks to anchor Ken Bastida's run-on sentence. You can't trust anyone anymore. . .
